In our latest episode we speak to top British tennis coach, Justin Sherring!

Justin has had the distinction of bringing through some of the brightest young tennis players of British tennis’ current golden generation, including Jack Draper, Johanna Konta, and former doubles World Number 1 Joe Salisbury.

Justin is currently working with Salisbury on the ATP tour and took some time to chat to Dan about how he’s developed some of the best British players of the past 15 years.

Justin shares his coaching philosophies, including the importance of learning how to bring the best out of your player, and tells lots of stories along the way - including talking himself onto court with our Episode #100 guest, the late great Nick Bollettieri!
